Well, the picnic and the day at the beach turned out to be a lot of fun…

The fellow MDC mamma was really cool and her kids are so cute… Xavier and her older dd had a lot of fun and I saw Xavier interact with another ids in a way the he rarely does… I think because of the lack of language barriers Xavier was really able to be himself, talk and be understood…

When we are with friends here in the area Xavier understands them but because he doesn’t speak much french… or is too shy or whatever to speak french he responds in english and they don’t understand him and that makes him frustrated and then often he just goes and plays in a corner..

That day he really played and talked and was himself… It was great…
